If I could give a zero I would. I want phi ally assaulted by a man in the bar and when I defended myself I was drug to the street by my wrists and told to never come back. If you stand up for yourself in any way and don’t just let anyone put their hands on you this is not the place to be. They will drag you outside and then record you talking about the injuries you received from said drag. Take care!

Lots of people, but no one is dancing and there’s not enough bartenders for the crowd. Would not recommend paying the cover charge to get in.

Pressed to buy a bottle to get a booth in an EMPTY club is unsettling. Wouldn't mind it if I didnt get a contact high in the club.
